Malware targeting OpenOffice documents is spreading through multiple operating systems including Mac OS, Windows and Linux, according to Symantec.
According to the Symantec Security Response website, the worm is capable of infecting multiple operating system platforms and is spreading.
The advisory said: "A new worm is being distributed within malicious OpenOffice documents. The worm can infect Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X systems. Be cautious when handling OpenOffice files from unknown sources".
The worm was first spotted late last month but at the time, it was not thought to be "in the wild".
